Posted 10/4/11 9:16 am EST by in Justin Bieber, Television

Earlier this year, Justin Bieber and Jimmy Fallon spoofed the ads for his perfume Someday and this week, Fallon is releasing the outtakes, full of karate kicks and the pair just having a really good time.

Dressed exactly like Bieber, with his classic swept bangs and signature leather jacket/T-shirt combo, Fallon opens the spoof looking into camera, whispering, "Someday, someday you'll look like this." From there hilarity ensues as Bieber and Fallon giggle their way through the outtakes with dance offs, messed up lines and good-natured ribbing.

Check out the clip, as well as our favorite messed-up lines, after the jump. Read More...

Happy Birthday, Gwen Stefani!

Posted 10/3/11 4:40 pm EST by in Happy Birthday!

Gwen Stefani

Today, No Doubt front woman and all-around fierce lady Gwen Stefani turns 42. The platinum-haired pop star is not only incredibly timeless, and might we add ageless, but she's also become the archetype for the female pop star.

Since launching onto the scene back in the '90s (yes, THE '90s!), she maintained her relevance. While No Doubt continue to chug away on their next album, Gwen's legacy remains all her own, having done it all. In addition to having an incredibly successful solo career, being a mom and a rock star wife, Stefani has paved the way for the business model of divas everywhere. Why, whatever do we mean?

Posted 10/3/11 1:11 pm EST by in Britney Spears, Tweet Beat

Britney Spears

Britney Spears is using Twitter to reach out to a special fan of hers. Over the weekend, the singer asked her Twitter devotees to help her locate one of her biggest supporters.

"If anyone can find this gentleman I've got a package with my entire catalog with his name on it...." she wrote, posting a picture of the homeless fan who is trying to connect with the singer.

In the tweeted photo of the man, he is holding a sign that reads, "Need to get new Britney Spears CD, anything will help, God bless." While further information about the man, his location or now Spears learned about him were not posted on Twitter, Spears is currently on the road in Europe with her Femme Fatale tour while the search continues. As of press time, no additional information about the search had been updated.

Spears Sign

Spears is the latest pop star to use the social networking site to try and connect with her fans. Just last week, Justin Bieber went on a similar search while on his My World tour in South America and Mexico. When he caught wind of a news report featuring a fan crying about not being able to see the star, he tweeted, "need everyone's help. we have LESS than 24 hours. we need to find this girl..she is at the 30 sec mark. HELP! Thanks." Read More...

Posted 10/3/11 12:14 pm EST by in Selena Gomez

Selena Gomez

We’re excited for a whole bunch of pop princess music videos. Britney Spears' "Criminal," Rihanna's "We Found Love," Katy Perry's "The One That Got Away," Demi Lovato's "Who's That Boy," whatever Beyonce or Lady Gaga have up their couture sleeves next, and now Selena Gomez's latest.

Without giving a solid confirmation about what her next single is, she had this question for her fans: "Filming a music video today... any ideas what song will be the next single after Love You Like a Love Song."

She then tweeted some lyrics from her track "Hit the Lights" – "It's the boy you never told 'I like you' it's the girl you LET get away.. It's the one you saw that day on the train but you freaked out and walked away..” The teen queen then gave a few photographic hints as to what fans might expect from the desert-themed clip.

Christina Aguilera, Maroon 5's 'Moves Like Jagger': Her Greatest Collabo?

Posted 9/29/11 3:36 pm EST by in Christina Aguilera, maroon-5

Christina Aguilera and Maroon 5 have struck gold with their sexy, chart-topping throwback jam, "Moves Like Jagger." The song, which features the vocal stylings of Xtina and her "The Voice" co-judge, Adam Levine, has really taken the world by storm. This week marks its fourth week at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart.

"The first time I heard the song I loved it," Aguilera told MTV News in a statement. "The song has elements from the '60s and '70s, yet is so current and unique." And it seems that audiences and fellow artists agree. Up-and-coming MC Mac Miller has remixed the track, proving that the song has some legs and isn't going anywhere.

So how does it rank against Xtina's other collaborations over the years? Let's take a look back at some of the more memorable ones. Read More...

Happy Birthday Hilary Duff! Demi Lovato, Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez Have You To Thank!

Posted 9/28/11 2:45 pm EST by in hilary duff

Hilary Duff's Disney princess days are "So Yesterday." These days, she's an actress/singer turned author and mogul who is busy being a full-fledged, fully-functioning adult. (Hear that, Lindsay Lohan!) She's also a hockey wife and expectant mother. So, at the ripe old age of 24 (yes, only 24!), she's managed to make the transition of tween queen to full-fledged adult star pretty seamlessly.

And for that we have this message for the Duffster: Happy Birthday! For those of you youngsters less familiar with Mrs. Mike Comrie, you might be more familiar with the Disney actresses who have followed in the grand Duff tradition. Without Hil, we wouldn't have a business model followed by the likes of Miley Cyrus, Selena Gomez and Demi Lovato, to name a few.

One decade ago, Duff became a household name as the star of "Lizzie McGuire." The show was an instant success with early millennium tweens and launched Duff into mega-fame. Thanks to the show, she was able to transition successfully into movies like "Cheaper By The Dozen" (and its sequel), "Agent Cody Banks" and "A Cinderella Story." Read More...

Rihanna: No Longer Topless, Finds New 'We Found Love' Video Location

Posted 9/28/11 1:41 pm EST by in Rihanna

Rihanna is back to being all covered up on the set of her "We Found Love" video. After angering an Irish farmer for shooting her video topless on his farm, she was spotted in Belfast, Northern Ireland all covered up (or at least her version of all covered up).

So what was she wearing? Well, here is the breakdown! She was wearing a denim bra top and matching, high-wasted denim skirt, looking much more demure than NSFW. She accessorized the look with her undeniable sass, a bandana and stockings. She was spotted shooting the video on the city streets, where more than 1,000 people, including local school children, all gathered to watch RiRi do her thing in the New Lodge area of the city.

One photo MTV News has gotten our greedy little hands on shows Rihanna, smiling next to a Trans AM, as she runs around town. Crowds of people watch as the singer shoots the clip. In other photos, the curly-haired singer uses a megaphone to, most likely, shout fierce things at the on-lookers. And, in another, Rihanna looks more serious as she walks, looking back at something. But what? Read More...

Nicki Minaj Teases Solo 2012 Tour: We Can Apply To Be Road Manager!

Posted 9/27/11 3:02 pm EST by in Interviews, Music, Twitter

Nicki Minaj confirmed on Twitter that she's readying a headlining tour for 2012. The fierce MC already has been on several high-profile tours, opening for the likes of Lil Wayne and Britney Spears, and now the Pink Friday rapper knows it's her Moment 4 Life.

Minaj has always gone over-the-top for her stage shows, even when she wasn't the headlining act, so we're excited to see what she has in store now that she's going out and doing her own thing.

"I wanted my set to be more than an opening act, 'cause, you know, I did that already," she told MTV News while on the road with Spears on her Femme Fatale tour, referring to her opening gig alongside her mentor Lil Wayne on the I Am Still Music Tour. "I always like to raise the bar for myself, and that's what I did. I think it's important to give people what they paid for." Read More...

Boyz II Men's Shawn Stockman Weighs In On 'The Sing Off'

Posted 9/26/11 8:47 am EST by in Television

"The Sing Off" is back and Boyz II Men's Shawn Stockman is excited. He's not just a huge fan of the show, he's one of the judges on the NBC competition.

Tonight, the Nick Lachey-hosted show kicks off its second week and as it heats up, Stockman promises that things are going to get tough for himself and fellow judges Ben Folds and Sara Bareilles.

"We're on our third season and it’s a longer season this time," he told MTV News. "The [talent's] off the hook, man. It’s a great show. It's a family oriented show. It's all a cappella and they're battling for $200 thousand and a Sony contract. It's a fun, really cool look at a cappella music. It's very close and near and dear to our hearts."

Of course, given the number of singing reality shows on TV, does Shawn think there's room for everyone? Find out, after the jump. Read More...

LMFAO Tease Headlining Tour, Dreams To Collaborate With Katy Perry, Aliens

Posted 9/22/11 4:20 pm EST by in LMFAO

When we chatted up the fellas of LMFAO a while back, they were casting extras for their funny, NSFW "Sexy And I Know It" video and we wanted to know what else the Party Rockers had up their sleeves (even though they mostly never wear sleeves).

It turns out they have some big plans for the future. "It's all in the inspiration of life; everything we do in life is a representation of something we see," SkyBlu said of the music they are currently cooking up. "It's like we're news reporters."

Interesting analogy, but as a real news reporter, rarely do I see anyone doing the "wiggle" or the shuffle in my travels. But then again, I'm not hanging around with the LMFAO guys nearly enough. RedFoo added that whatever happens, happens with them. "We make stuff and then if somebody comes to mind, a female singer or a male singer or an alien," he trailed off before SkyBlu suggested a Katy Perry collabo. Read More...
